Woman's Rights.

1t had been my plan to have no part nor lot
in the discussion which has grown to such
proportions in your paper. As there has
been SO much of sounding brass" and
thinking cymbal," would in behalf of the
children, appeal to the mothers concerning
their most sacred rights which are undisput-
ed. If there are already so many neglected
children in our city, whaI will be the case
when mothers are obliged to add to present
duties, those which must become theirs
when they enter tine political arena? / refer
here to children of respectable families
Having occasion last summer to do
some literary work in the cause of philan-
thropy, went several times out from my
home after nightfall. saw young people of
both sexes, well, often daintily dressed. l
heard language and witnessed behavior that
betokened a depravity frightful to contem-
plate. 1t seemed as if they must have come
up from the slums. But Investigation
plenty reigned, and in some cases were chill
dren of parents who profess to honor pure
and holy Master. Why were those children
abroad at night? Why had they learned
such language and such behavior? Why do
not mothers know where their children are
when they are from home after dark? One
mother Indignantly says: Il do not know,
but can trust my Child Another knows
that her child has evil companions but
thinks her duty done, when she tells him she
does not approve them Many others have
not time. What with domestic duties and
the calls Of society, there is no time to do
much for the children; but they are in the
in the Sabbath School on the first day of the
week, and in the public school on other days.
and the teachers are faithful and the chill
dren must have freedom some time would
like to know how these methers will get more
time when they have imposed upon them
the responsibilities of politics and the
necessity Of studying party movements and
questions. Now, as we have no surety that
the world will come to an end in the nine
teenth century, will 1t mot be well that the wo-
men of today find time to train their sons to
be better men than their fathers are and
their daughters SO that the world may be
better for their being in it? 0, mothers, let
us not waste our time in grieving over fan
cied wrongs. Let us have confidence in our
children; but do not let this excuse our care
lessness. Let us guard their young lives
and guide the tender feet that they may not
stray into thorny paths. Let the lights and
brought out for the children. Let sas much
as possible of Gods time be devoted to these
precious charges which He has given us.
Above all, let us know where are children
are when night throws her 'sable MANTLE"
over earth. Nor make distinction between
our sons and daughters. A famous man
once on said introduce me to the young men
young women are" The influence of men
and women over each other is reflex Only
when mothers instruct their children in ac-
c0rdance with this belief, will there arise
generation OF pure men and pure women,
Let the women OF today find time to enjoy
their rights, and the next generation will not
call Tor female suffrage.

Good TempIars.

AT the annual session of Cumberland Dis
trict Lodge, Good Templars, Feb. Q, a spec
ial committee was appointed to prepare reso-
lutions upon the death of Ellery II. Starbird,
late of Gray. 1t is well known that he was
for years prominent temperance man, and
a most earnest worker in the cause At the
time of his decease he was an active member
of Gray Lodge, of Gray, of the District
Lodge. and of the Grand Lodge
Whereas, 1t hath pleased God to remove by
death, from his field of usefulness, our dear BROTH
er, Ellery II. Starbird, OF Gray, a veteran in the
temperance cause, therefore be it
Resolved, That, in the death of Mr.. Starbird
the great and holy cause we 50 much love, has
lost one of Its truest, ablest and most earnest de-
tenders.
Reseiued, That his own lodge, Gray. of Gray.
the District Lodge and the Grand Lodge will miss
him from the ranks of their me nberS, because of
his faithfulness to duty, and for the noble stand
he ever took for the grand principles our order
Resolued, That, while sincerely mourning his
death and deploring his losswe are eonsoled by the
through the grand influence he left behind, which
will encourage us to move forward in the cause of
right against wrong, until the victory he so longed
RESOLVED, That we extend to the loved ones left
behind our heartfelt sympathies in this the hour
OF their mourning, for the kind husband, loving
father and true friend who has passed out from
the pleasant home no more TO return;
ReS0tCed, mat, as brothers and sisters, we will
help them to feel that, out of the darkness which
sorrow has settled over their pathway, will come
heavenly light, born of God which will bring
Joy to their hearts, and happiness to their lives;
Resolged, That we will cherish fondly in our
hearts the memory OF this true man, noble citi-
zed, ana our dear brother and will strive to make
manifest to the world that his example has not
been lost upon us, members OF the General Order,
he loved so WELL
ReSolued That these resolutions be spread upon
our records, and copy be sent to the family of
our deceased brother, and that they be furnished

Montague.

Those who are skeptical as to the perform
ance of feats advertised to be done by Mr..
Montague may rest assured that they will
all be presented and what is better still will
be fully explained. Mr.. Montague says on
the subject "Quickness of motion on the
part of the mind reader is the chief essential
of success, though the result may be achiev-
ed by cautious and slow degrees. Quickness
of motion, however, throws the subject off
his guard, and renders him an easy victim
to the subterfuge. A prolonged trial is
wearisome to the mind of the operator. The
endeavor to keep the mind constantly upon
a single point is an effort which some men
cannot long actively maintain, and of which
a few, am very certain are utterly incapable.
A man who has strong nerves is good sub
ject. Quivering muscles and shaking nerves
are decidedly confusing. Embodied as /
am and fixing all my perceptiye faculties
upon the person who is to follow me to the
concealed articles, am able to detect the
slightest indication which he gives of a de-
sire to go in certain direction"
Good seats for the entertainment may be
secured at StOckb bridges music store

George M. Howe.

Many of our older, and all ofliour Masonic
citizens, were acquainted withlMr. George NJ
Howe. Mr.. Howe, who was about GA years
of age, and was son of the old Portland
merchant, Edward Howe, died at his resi-
dence at the st. Julian Hotel yesterday. Mr..
Howe was bachelor and very eccentric.
By trade he was a photographer, and the
familiar view of Middle street before the
fire, with the old Second Parish church in
the distance, was from negative taken by
him. Later in life he passed some time in
Denver, Colorado. He was fine musician,
a member of the old musical societies of the
city, and organist of the Masonic order in
Portland. He was a member of Portland
Lodge. The first intimation the order had
of his serious illness was his inability to
play at the meeting of Portland Command
cry last Thursday evening. He leaves a
niece resident of Portland. Mr.. Howe was
Grand Representative of the Grand Com
mandery of Colorado to the Grand Com
mandery, Knights Templar, of Maine, and
belonged to Greenleaf Royal Arch Chapter
and Portland Commandery

TheLabor Caucus.

The adjourned caucus of the supporters of
Mr.. Jewett for Mayor was held in Reform
Club Hall last evening. Mr.. Jewett, B. B.
Martis, A. ]. johnson, A. w. Smart and ten
others were present. The meeting was
called for 7.30 o'clock, but it was just half
past eight when the chairman, Mr.. Martis,
took his place and called for order The
purpose Of the meeting was to hear report
from the committee ON nominations for ward
officers. Mr. Elihu Homan of Ward said
that he was not ready to report Mr.. c. III.
Coffin of Ward 5 was not present; Mr..
Martis of Ward said that he had ticket,
but did not read it; Capt. Smart, represent
ing Ward G, had nothing to offer, and Mr..
Houston of Ward was not there.
The chairman suggested that if the meet
ing adjourned he thought that list Of can
didates could be made up. 1t was voted to
leave the selection of candidates to the CON-
mittee, and the meeting adjourned. The
ticket will be made up of independent nom-
nations in some wards, remaining wards
supporting the nominees of the other parties.
Before the meeting. Mr.. Martis expressed
his indignation at the action of the Prohibi-
ton caucus Of the previous evening, in not
allowing him to serve upon its committee of
nominations.

Rainbow Tea.

A delightful entertainment with the above
title was held last evening in the New Jeru
salem yestry. The hall was prettily trimmed
with tissue paper with very perfect rain
bow in front. The tables decked in various
colors were arranged in semi-circle and
bountifully laden with good things. After
tea the following musical programme was
excellently rendered much to the enjoyment
of all, nearly every number being encored:
Zylophone Solo,. T. Hennessey, with accom-
paniment by Miss A. z. Bracket

A Thief Caught.

For some time past Mr.. A. M. Smith, the
well-known fish merchant, has missed arti-
cles from his vessels, and could not ascertain
who the thief was. Yesterday he placed the
matter in the hands Of Detective Robert A.
Davis, who arrested Charles Harris, man
about fifty years iof age, for breaking into
the cabin of the schooner Titmouse and
stealing valuable sail. Within an hour af-
ter the case was placed in Mr.. Davis's hands
the man was arrested, the evidence of his
guilt obtained, and the stolen property re-
covered. That may be called quick work
and reflects great credit on Mr.. Davis.

The Soldiers Monument.

To the Editor Of the Press:
In reply to letter suggesting that small
Ell, less expensive and richer monument can
be erected, thereby saving the Old City Hall
from destruction and furthering art in Port
land at the same time, the Advertiser of
Feb. 10th makes the following reply:
1t is not improbable that the figures named by
PRESS 1885 ,0O0l, may be reached or surpassed,
providing for more elaboate decorations in the
form of sculptured panels. But monument inn
pressive in mass and suitable in design can be
built for $4,000, though much more than that
sum may easily be spent upon unessential, but
not undesirable, details"
As it is thing of beauty the committee are
about to erect, it is evident from the forego-
ing that it is upon mass that they rely for
beauty upon mass to render the selected site
appropriate. Now this is quality only to be
seen from afar and, consistent to this princi-
pie, medallion busts and historical panels are
unesSential. We know that impressiveness
is impaired, perhaps destroyed, by being
viewed from above and yet Congress Street
slopes downward to. the site. There is but
one point of view where the intention of the
committee will be achieved, namely Middle
Street, but that is the view of its back. On
Congress Street, east, the view is intercepted.
The Committee place a monument relying
upon mass In the most 1requenteQ center OF
the city, at a point especially adapted to close
examination by the passing crowd and yet
these gentlemen declare details worthily fin
ished, as unessential even though they record
facts. They suppress them as too expensive.
Better less expense and more detail. The
committee advocate pure impressionism, not
serious work. They believe in seeing it from
a long distance. But ON the City Hall lot
art critics would know the proper points.
The people would look at it near to. True
impressionism is that which can be seen both
far and near. Finished work which carries"
as the artists say.
1t has been suggested, as in the cut in the
PRESS of Feb. II, that the hand on the drum
be made in terra-cotta for the sake of the col
or, This principle Of many colored monu-
mentS, like the use of various col0red mar
bles in sculpture, has been abandoned in all
the art centers of the old world, as destruc-
tive to the dignity of the subject. A colored
group or monument is produced, not by the
employment of pigments but by the arrange
ment of shadows TO produce colored effect.
Terra-cotta will not add to monument those
qualities that only labor and money can pro-
duce In word then the employment Of in
sufficient means and of rejected principles in
|, art can produce but one result-dissatisfac

The Biggest Gain Yet.

BosToN, March 3.-The average circula-
ton Of the Boston DAILY GLOBE in Febru-
airy reached the unparalleled figure of 1885,
405. Two years ago the same month, the
average was 5362l. In two years the circu-
lation has been more than doubled THE
SUNDAY GLOBE averaged 1852 Two
years ago, same month, it was only 58,462
This remarkable progress astonishes all the
people, and thousands are ordering The

The Retaliation Bill.

The fishermen in the harbor generally dis
played their colors yesterday from delight at
the passage of the Edmunds' retaliation bill.
A leading fish dealer thought the passage of
the bill had prevented the lawlessness that
might arise when the Canadian fishermen
came here for bait when fitting out for the
spring fishing season. These Canadian fish
ermen take from 5000 to 5000 bushels of
clam bait from this port and our fishermen
might have made trouble with tie Canadians
when they came for bait about March 10Th.
